Dropping out to Transfer

I’m transferring. It’s no longer a question of if, but when. Here’s my question. Would it affect my applications to drop out of my current school and spend the fall of next year focusing on applications and getting a part time job? I ask because I go to a very expensive private school, and I’m questioning whether or not it’s fair to ask my parents to pay for another semester of it when I’m not enjoying it or really getting anything out of it. I’d think about taking some community college classes just to get some credits done, but ultimately I want to know if it would effect my applications if I left my current school and basically took a semester off before going back to school somewhere else.
